Note this from vmstat(1M): Without options, vmstat displays a one-line summary of the virtual memory activity since the system was booted. In other words, the first line of vmstat output is some value that does not represent the current state of the system. Try this instead: $ vmstat 1 2 kthr memory page disk faults cpu r b w swap free re mf pi po fr de sr m0 m1 m2 m1 in sy cs us sy id 0 0 0 12371648 5840200 30 93 14 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 5 711 2258 1257 1 0 98 0 0 0 9581336 2987584 61 69 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 543 972 518 0 0 100 >From a free memory standpoint, the current state of the system is very different than the typical state since boot. -- Mike Gerdts http://mgerdts.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
